The programme
What your child gets at DeepThink
Each weekly session builds directly on the last. Your child works through new concepts, revisits gaps, and practises exam-style questions — in a group small enough that the teacher actually knows them.

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers for parents
Does DeepThink follow the same syllabus my child is on at Princess Elizabeth Primary School?
Yes. All Singapore primary schools follow the MOE Primary Math syllabus, and our P1–P6 classes are built around that curriculum — the same topics, the same model-drawing and heuristics approach, and the same exam format your child sits at Princess Elizabeth Primary School.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Parents are kept informed on what was covered and where their child should focus. We also flag any persistent gaps as soon as we spot them — not just before exams.
When should my child start tuition?
There's no single right answer, but earlier is generally better. Gaps in foundational topics like fractions and ratios compound as children move through primary school. A free trial class is a good way to find out where your child actually stands.
What makes DeepThink different from other math tuition centres?
Small group classes, parents kept in the loop on progress, and a curriculum focused on the exact skills MOE examiners test — including how to structure solutions, not just whether the answer is correct.
School Overview
Princess Elizabeth Primary School (PEPS) has its origins in 1952, when it operated as Bukit Panjang Afternoon School, sharing facilities with nearby schools during Singapore's post-war push for expanded education. The school was renamed in 1956 following Queen Elizabeth II's visit to Singapore and later moved to its present campus along Bukit Batok West Avenue 3. Today, PEPS is a government co-educational, single-session primary school serving more than 1,500 students.
The school is guided by its ASPIRE values — Attitude, Self-discipline, Perseverance, Integrity, Respect, and Empathy — and its motto, "Each His Best," which encourages every student to work towards personal excellence. PEPS has been recognised as the West Zone Centre of Excellence in Character Development, reflecting its sustained focus on values-driven education.
PEPS offers an Applied Learning Programme (ALP) in Innovation and Enterprise, themed "Designing For Inclusivity (Design4U)," which introduces students to STEM concepts through hands-on projects centred on empathy and creative problem-solving. The school also runs a Learning for Life Programme (LLP) called "The LOVE Experience," focused on community service and building empathy through real-world engagement. An annual S.T.E.M Fest, introduced in 2021, brings together mathematics and science activities through interactive challenges for students across levels. MOE Kindergarten at Princess Elizabeth (MK@PEPS) began operations in January 2023, offering early childhood education aligned with the primary school transition.
Admission Process
Primary 1 registration at Princess Elizabeth Primary School follows MOE's annual P1 Registration Exercise, which typically takes place from July to August for children turning seven the following year. Parents submit applications online through the MOE portal using Singpass.
The registration exercise proceeds through multiple phases based on priority. Phase 1 is reserved for children with siblings already enrolled at the school. Phase 2A covers children whose parents are alumni, staff members, or volunteers. Phase 2B is for children whose parents have participated in community leadership or volunteered at the school. Phase 2C is open to all Singapore Citizen children who were not registered in earlier phases.
If applications in any phase exceed the available places, balloting is conducted. Priority in balloting is given based on home-to-school distance: children living within 1 km are considered first, followed by those within 1 to 2 km, and then those beyond 2 km.
The school is located at 30 Bukit Batok West Avenue 3, Singapore 659163, near Bukit Batok MRT station. Parents should consult the MOE website each year for the latest registration dates, phase details, and vacancy information.

PEPS follows the MOE national curriculum for primary schools. Core subjects include English Language, Mathematics, Science (from Primary 3), Mother Tongue Language, Art, Music, Physical Education, and Social Studies. Mother Tongue options available at the school are Chinese, Malay, and Tamil, with both Foundation and Higher Mother Tongue tracks offered in accordance with MOE guidelines.
The Mathematics curriculum at PEPS places emphasis on reasoning, communication, and applying mathematical concepts to everyday situations, building a strong foundation for the PSLE and secondary school. The school's ALP in Designing for Inclusivity integrates STEM learning across subjects, encouraging students to approach problems creatively and consider the needs of different users. For families seeking additional structured support in mathematics, DeepThink is a math tuition centre that offers programmes aligned with the primary school syllabus.
Subject-Based Banding at the primary level allows students to take subjects at Foundation or Standard levels based on individual strengths, ensuring that each child is appropriately supported and challenged. The school's emphasis on holistic development means that academic learning is complemented by character education, leadership opportunities, and community involvement through the LLP.
Facilities and Co-Curricular Activities
The PEPS campus in Bukit Batok includes classrooms equipped with interactive smart technology, a dedicated STEM lab for Design4U projects, a library, science rooms, and outdoor spaces such as multipurpose fields used for physical education and inquiry-based learning activities.
Co-Curricular Activities (CCAs) at PEPS span sports, performing arts, clubs and societies, and uniformed groups. Sports options include basketball, soccer, and track and field. The performing arts programme features Choir, Concert Band, and Cultural Dance, with PEPS students achieving strong results in national-level Indian, Malay, and Chinese dance competitions. Clubs such as Robotics and the Innovation Society connect to the school's ALP, giving students opportunities to develop problem-solving skills through coding and STEM projects. Uniformed groups like Scouts help build leadership and discipline.
CCAs are designed to develop teamwork, resilience, and a range of interests beyond the academic curriculum. The school encourages participation from Primary 3 onwards, with modular CCA options available for younger students to explore different activities.
Student Life and School Culture
School culture at PEPS is shaped by the ASPIRE values and a strong commitment to character development. As the West Zone Centre of Excellence in Character Development, the school integrates values education into daily routines, lessons, and co-curricular programmes.
